The Bar Method™ and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment Partner to Promote Dance Fitness In Celebration of  Academy Award-Nominated Film Black Swan*

San Francisco, CA (March 3, 2011) – Fitness sensation The Bar Method, known for its unique full-body exercise program that utilizes a ballet bar technique, is partnering with Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment to promote dance fitness and a healthy body in celebration of the release of the Academy-Award® nominated film Black Swan, available on Blu-ray Disc and DVD March 29th.

Throughout the month of March, The Bar Method will offer an ongoing Black Swan sponsored training series at Bar Method studios located in New York City, West Los Angeles, West Hollywood, Downtown San Francisco, the flagship San Francisco Marina studio, Miami, Chicago, Seattle, Dallas and Portland to celebrate the film’s upcoming release on Blu-ray and DVD.

The month long promotion will culminate with an exclusive media event at the New York City SoHo studio where founder Burr Leonard will teach a master class to representatives from the cast and crew of Black Swan.

According to Burr Leonard, Founder of The Bar Method, "The Bar Method workout sculpts an elongated, lean firm body, often associated with ballet dancers. Through our program participants can expect a healthy, toned appearance while gaining grace and poise.”

“Black Swan has become a cultural phenomenon that has reignited interest in the beauty of classical ballet,” said Mary Daily, Executive Vice President, Marketing, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. “The partnership with The Bar Method capitalizes on the intense popularity of the film while providing a healthy and effective exercise program based on the fundamentals of dance.”

About Black Swan

BLACK SWAN follows the story of Nina (Natalie Portman), a ballerina in the New York City Ballet trying to make it to the top. When artistic director Thomas Leroy (Vincent Cassel) decides to replace prima ballerina Beth MacIntyre (Winona Ryder) for the opening production of their new season, Swan Lake, Nina is his first choice. But a new dancer, Lily (Mila Kunis), also impresses Leroy and becomes Nina’s competition. Nina fits the White Swan role perfectly with her innocence and grace, but Lily is the personification of the Black Swan with her fiery personality. As the two young dancers expand their rivalry into a twisted friendship, Nina begins to get more in touch with her dark side with a recklessness that threatens to destroy her.
